S. Korean Military's Farce of "Examination Regarding Forces Following North" Flailed
Pyongyang, September 14 (KCNA) -- The Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea released information bulletin No. 1010 Friday as regards the south Korean army's farce of "examination concerning the forces following the north". The bulletin said:

Units of the south Korean army were recently disclosed to have staged the farce of "examination regarding forces following the north" among officers and soldiers, touching off a big furor.

The south Korean puppet military present more than 120 "problems for the recognition and evaluation of entities following the north" and let officers and men of the army sit for the compulsory examination. They are giving passing grades only when examinees call pro-reunification and democratic forces in south Korea "pro-north leftist forces" that follow the Juche idea and socialist idea.

Only those who received passing grades are allowed promotion and furlough and those who have not passed the examination are forced to sit for it until they pass.

In this regard, south Korea's opposition parties and civic and public organizations are calling it a "political intervention for the election of conservative forces in the presidential election" and "revival of yusin-based army".

However, south Korean "Defense Minister" Kim Kwan Jin and other top military officials are insisting on holding the examination, claiming that "education regarding pro-north forces is essential for soldiers" and "it is quite natural to teach the soldiers the entity of pro-north forces".

This is a hideous fascist action going against the nation, democracy, reunification and humanity that could not be seen even under the rule of the past military fascist dictatorial regime.

The examination concerning "pro-north forces" orchestrated by the south Korean military regime is aimed to revive the fading "outlook on the arch enemy" and "theory of principal enemy" within the army and prod servicepersons to escalate confrontation with fellow countrymen and launch a war against the DPRK.

Increasing among the army are voices denouncing the Lee Myung Bak regime of traitors for its frantic moves for a war against the DPRK and praising the DPRK.

It is against this backdrop that the regime is imposing the "examination" to revive the "outlook on the arch enemy", escalate confrontation with fellow countrymen and raise war awareness.

This is also the last-ditch efforts to ensure the conservative forces' stay in power in the upcoming "presidential election."

Those of the puppet military are trying to prolong their remaining days by relying on the conservative regime. So, they use the "examination regarding pro-north forces" to justify the "yusin" dictatorship and make more votes for the "Saenuri Party" candidate in the "election".

The Lee Myung Bak regime and the "Saenuri Party" at the back of the U.S. are behind the farce of "examination".

Clear is that south Korea will go back to the dark period of the "yusin" fascist dictatorship, far from coming out for the improvement of north-south relations unless the Lee regime and the "Saenuri Party's" moves for confrontation with the DPRK are foiled.

South Koreans from all walks of life should heighten vigilance against the revival of the "yusin" dictatorship that gained ill-fame for military coup and fascist suppression, and strongly denounce and reject the moves of "examination".
